Oh my god

Staff members of an elementary school staged a fictitious gun attack on students during a class trip, telling them it was not a drill as the children cried and hid under tables.


...parents of the sixth-grade students were outraged.

"The children were in that room in the dark, begging for their lives, because they thought there was someone with a gun after them," said Brandy Cole, whose son went on the trip.


During the last night of the trip, staff members convinced the 69 students that there was a gunman on the loose. They were told to lie on the floor or hide underneath tables and stay quiet. A teacher, disguised in a hooded sweat shirt, even pulled on locked door.



There's more if you can take it. But first of all, you longtime readers...guess in which state this betrayal of children by people they are suppoed to trust took place. Go on, guess. If I were a parent of any of those students I'd want every single person involved fired.

I might even want the school shut down. There is no excuse, none, for making a bunch of elementary school children think they're in some cross between a real-life nightmare and a Friday the 13th movie.
